Windows 10 is the latest attempt
by Microsoft to unify their operating systems into one to make it available in
all sorts of devices - including mobile phones, tablets and computers -
offering a similar experience.
The previous version of Windows
10 for PCs and tablets has been available already for several months, showing
some new and universal apps that promise to work on different devices. The
Windows 10 version of Mobile (mobile) was authorized in February, but the
previous version of Windows 10 latest, authorized on April 10, is what really
has the most news.
You can see how to download
Windows 10 Mobile here, but it is worth remembering that as it is still an
early version, the operating system has more errors than normal and not
everything works properly. Also your cell risks lock.
Design
Windows 10 interface Mobile does
not change drastically what we know about Windows Phone 8.1 and at first sight
is not very easy to tell the difference. However, Windows 10 Mobile brings some
changes that offer more customization and a better experience.
Wallpaper: The wallpaper can be
placed across the back of the screen and not just behind the tile as before.
Quick Actions: The settings in
the Notification Center can now be expanded to three rows instead of just one.
This allows more control of device settings without entering the center of
settings each time.

Configuration menu: Settings are
renewed and now offer not only text but also icons that allow identify them
more easily. Also, they look nicer.
Keyboard: The new keyboard of
Windows 10 Mobile includes support for voice dictation, emojis and arrows to
navigate through the interface or the text field.

Cortana: The Microsoft virtual
assistant has a new design. The background is white and there is now a lower
bar where you can enter search text, a microphone to enable voice commands if
Cortana is no longer watching over you and now allows you to control what is
the best information we know about you.

Although these previous versions
of Windows 10 Mobile Cortana not speak Spanish, it is expected that the final
version does.
Microsoft Edge: the new browser
The successor of Internet
Explorer made its first appearance in the previous version of Windows 10 to
computers and, more recently, in the second qualifying version of Windows 10
for mobile.
Formerly known as Project
Spartan, Microsoft Edge uses the same processing engine that the computer
version, while also trying to keep the same design concept.
The only new features that brings
integrated Edge in this previous version of Windows 10 Mobile are reading lists
and reading mode. While the first allows you to add websites to a list to be
synchronized in the future so they can be read later on any device with Windows
10, read mode simplifies the design of the Web page and remove any unnecessary
graphics to make the content more easy to read and display.
The reading list is behind the
app menu while reading mode is activated by pressing the book icon located on
the right side of the address bar. You can learn more about Microsoft Edge
here.

Mail Outlook and Outlook Calendar
New email and calendar apps come
with Windows 10 Mobile to deliver improved experience: Mail Outlook and Outlook
Calendar, two new universal apps by Microsoft.
In general, Outlook Mail
maintains a very similar interface to Outlook app found in iOS and Android, as
well as the desktop version. Its design is minimalist and easy to use. In
addition, Outlook Mail supports gestures, allowing flag as important to slide
right or delete email to slide to the right, but these gestures can be
customized in the options.
Outlook Calendar, meanwhile, has
a very similar design to post app, keeping a menu on top. The days are no
longer divided into grids and Windows Phone 8.1, but each day occupies the
entire width of the screen. You also have the option of going directly to a
particular day to fill the screen.

Outlook Mail is much easier to
use, and yes it is a pleasure to use it. Gestures simplify ations generally
conducted in our emails and simplified interface allows you to view emails
easily. Meanwhile, Outlook Calendar works a little differently than the
previous version, including a simpler, flat interface, although the grid
display featuring Windows Phone 8.1 in the calendar app made more attractive to
see our appointments throughout the week.
New apps messaging, marking and contacts
The new messaging app does not
bring great news for the moment, but the design changed a bit to transmit
pattern design with all apps: it's simple, flat and easy to navigate. You can
now call directly from the app messaging by pressing the phone icon in the
conversation and you can also block numbers with ease.
The dial app now spends his menus
to the top and integrates a simpler, flat design, while maintaining a similar
appearance messaging app.

Moreover, the contact app
(People) brings a similar app messaging and dial design: simplified and flat
panel you find a contact, which is new and groups. The app can integrate your
contacts from various services, including Exchange, Outlook.com, Gmail and
Facebook, among others.
Maps

It is the first universal app
previous version of the maps that can prove on a phone. The new Maps app
integrates aerial view, local listings and voice navigation Maps and Bing Maps
Here.
The interface design of new
Mobile apps Windows 10 is also transmitted, making it flat and simple to use.
The new map provides more
features that turn out to be useful and is a good performance than offered
Windows Phone 8.1.
Apps for iOS and Android

Apps for iOS and Android |
Through Visual Studio Code,
developers will migrate apps from iOS (Objective C) and Android (Java / C ++)
to make some modifications to run on devices with Windows 10. In addition,
Microsoft can convert web pages apps; The company also said that .NET and Win32
apps are available in the Windows Store apps store.
Function as computer
Cell Mobile with Windows 10 can
connect to a monitor via a cable to the interface and universal apps
automatically adjust and can function as, almost, a desktop computer. Also, you
can connect a wireless keyboard and mouse (Bluetooth) to use your phone with
Windows 10 like a desktop computer.
First impression
Microsoft has enabled so far only
two previous versions of Windows 10, so we have not yet met all the news and
actual performance or functionality of Windows 10 on mobile. It also still has
significant mistakes, so if you want to test is recommended not to install it
on your main phone. But with what we have come to know and test, I believe that
Windows 10 Mobile is certainly a step forward to what had been offering Windows
Phone 8.1.
Windows 10 transmitted through
the various default Microsoft the same kind of flat and simple interface,
providing a pleasant experience apps. It offers more customization, looks and
feels like a more modern operating system for cell and, for example, the new
maps app integrates two worlds - HERE Maps and Bing Maps - making it feel like
a more advanced and professional app . In addition, Universal Office apps will
arrive in the coming weeks to bring a more complete version of Office apps to
cell.
However, some menus have changed
from the bottom to the top, making it a little more difficult to select,
especially in large screen phones. In addition, this requires a small learning
curve that not all Windows Phone users enjoy immediately.
Windows 10 Mobile is a great
opportunity for Microsoft reach iOS and Android in the mobile world. With the
ability to migrate apps from other platforms and to convert computer cell,
Microsoft suggests a future of mobile devices that many have imagined. Remains
to be seen how much interest for developers to migrate their apps to the
platform and how good is the final version of Windows 10.
